    It's really disappointing that there are just 4 chelisarets, as the were meant to be this game's reaper. And if you didn't know, there were 25 reapers in Subnautica

      I think the reason there’s less is that they do more damage (I think) or at least a lot of damage, and the developers wanted the game to be a bit easy so they lowered the amount to 4

    Chels are by far my favorite Subnautica creature, They are cute (I ended up naming the one in the purple vents Billy Bob) but can be pretty scary once they start waving their jaws around and making clicking sounds. Due to their roar being extremely similar to that of the cryptosuckus, you can sometimes think you are safe when you actually aren't, unlike the reaper.

The Sea Dragon of course looks like a dragon, grafted onto a squid. But the Chelicerates don't frighten me because they appear to be just animals, without much personality. Whereas the aggressive Leviathans in Subnautica come across as monsters.

    To me the void Chelisarets kinda look ill, so maybe they’re older than the red ones and the reason they do less damage is cause they’ve been muscled out of territory with good amounts of prey by the healthier ones?

    But to avoid Chellies being a disappointment like in Below-Zero maybe the devs can give them louder, threatening distant roars or screeches like Subnautica 1's leviathans, also making their hunting grounds murky would also be a good way to build the fear factor.

    Just a note; I do not think the orange parts are barnacles, but instead, the loss of their original colour from being out in darker and colder waters instead of thermal vents and age of course, the white/greyish colour is their aged colour, while red is their nascent colour. The Red Chelicerates imo are young ones, and the ones in the void are their older counter-parts, similar to how you find mostly non-adult ghost leviathans in the map areas but then in the void, they are much bigger and "Adult". The fins themselves glowing may also be the result of transitioning into darker and colder waters as a means to communicate with their kind, but also simply a maturing aspect of the creature. The size imo is also a factor.

    My theory for the coud chelicerates are that they suffer from a mutation similar to gigantism found in humans, i.e. the hormone that normally is released to stop growth failed to activate and as a result they continued to grow. Do to their increased size and confined space of sector zero they moved to the void to stop swimming into things.
    Edit: this would also explain their weaker attacks, as the uncontrolled growth makes the muscle strained and weak.

    I was never really threatened by these things tbh
    Also since I based in the vent gardens I had to kill 2 of these boys so they would leave me alone

    The void leviathans doing less damage kinda does make sense. There's less food to eat so they would be weaker and a larger body mass means they use more energy to move and attack, plus the growths might sap their strength.
    Also, that name is... too scientific, honestly. Wish they were called Corvid leviathans instead.

    A Chelicerate is really similar to a reaper leviathan maybe even a sun species of them
